The best fragrance Names of all time

Hello, I´m posting this one... I don´t know if it was posted in the past. I would like to ask you frangrance addicted which are the best well names of fragrances of all time. I´m refering to the most appealing name, the names that has more to do with the smell inside the bottle.

Re: The best fragrance Names of all time

Eternity &
Obsession - these both had to be taken, and Calvin was the fastest, the latter juice has the added bonus of being great as well.

Vol de Nuit (and Joop!´s english namesake nightflight)

Acier Aluminium - Sounds very intriguing although I´m not sure what they mean, steel-aluminun?

Ambre Canelle - very often stuff just sounds better in french, lovely language even though it´s´main representatives sometimes aren´t .

Safari - One of my all time favourite frags and both name, bottle and concept corresponds amazingly with the juice. The print ads with Bridget Hall and that adorable lion cub didn´t exactly suck either.

Rive Gauche - stylish name, stylish scent, stylish bottle.

And not a fragrance name but a line from the lacoste red campaign:

Style on skin - I´ve always thought the responsible copywriter should get an award, it´s just such a fantastic tagline, simple and so efficient.

You've all posted such good ones already. Wish I'd thoght of plenty of those.

Iquitos. I love the name. Don't know what it means, but the sound is good enough for me. Keeps me wondering who would think to name a scent with that sound and then who up the management chain approved the decision.

I've got to wear it more often so that someone out there will ask what I'm wearing and I'll get to say the word instead of all this talking to myself with it.

I bet "vomit" even sounds good in French. Most of my favorite names are French and I don't even know what they mean. Two English ones that I like are:
Opium - Just daring to name a mass market product after an illicit narcotic.
Agent Provocateur - Provocative?!
